NTT Data says it will scale its workforce in Mangaluru, increasing employee numbers from about 900 to 2,500 by the end of 2027. The plan is focused on expanding staffing to support additional delivery needs in the coastal city.

Across the reports, the company frames the growth as part of building deeper capabilities, including work around AI, data, and more specialised industry services. While the headline figures are consistent, outlets differ slightly in the emphasis they give to broader capability themes versus the workforce expansion alone.

All three sources report the same overall target and timeframe, with the Business Line report adding more detail about the types of capabilities the expansion is meant to support. Times of India presents the same core information, with less additional context.
